[Ruthless-RKO]

I actually read that Sandy Ryan is Co-feature..

Might be Barrett.

[JamesPhilips]

Random prediction. Sammy Lee gets beat.

[cormack]

can we have iptv as a voting option ?

[Glass Joe]

can we have iptv as a voting option ?

that would come under Dodgy Stream

Skye fit but hella boring when she fights

[TheLeprechaun]

Sunny Edwards telling us in 100 different ways how great it is to stink out a joint is pretty funny.

[skanksta]

I got DAZN on Sky429.

Nice to have it on the remote, tipped me over in to paying for a year. Seems a little quicker than the stream, but every chance it doesn't last a year !

Jordan Thompson first, should be a good start...

[jameswilson]

Main card here starting with Watkins v Jordan Thompson whereas the Sky bill opens with some sh1t 8 rounder. Think I’ll go with this one.

My bet for the night is Watkins and Rozanski to win. Got 11/1 so am outside bet.

[skanksta]

I'm recording The Cabbage card - will be awesome...

[skanksta]

Close and tough to score, 2-1 to somebody
"What you like" so probably the home favourite - JT 29-28.

[smiling assassin]

Watkins boxing lovely in r3 but the commentary don’t like to credit him

[jameswilson]

Watkins boxing lovely in r3 but the commentary don’t like to credit him

He had a few good rounds and won one or two of them but Thompson stayed in control despite shipping shots. But he seemed to be more durable than Watkins and far more durable than I gave him credit for having obviously bet on Watkins. I thought he would unfold taking the shots he did.

[Kilburn]

Nice job from Thompson.

[skanksta]

A lot to work on with Jordan Thompson - he got hit a lot and made to look poor at times by "The Duke" - but a lot of potential too...
He's big, long and difficult with power.

[WestEndRiot]

I caved and signed up for the annual pass today.

If this is a sign of things to come i won't be complaining. 3 good competitive fights tonight on paper.

I thought Watkins looked the better boxer in spells there, but it always looked like Thompson's size and power would be the telling factor

Fully agree. It’s a shame he’s not younger so I’d imagine they’ll try and rush him a little.

[skanksta]

^ Yeah, a lot like Riakporhe - an absolute specimen at CW that they've taught to box.

The Brown Flash vs El Alcranito next, should be good too....

[skanksta]

Brown Flash 2-0.

Sanchez always competitive and dangerous, but that Zelf on the Shelf I think he's winning myself..

[skanksta]

BIG 3rd for Zelfa !

[KiwiRider]

I'm recording The Cabbage card - will be awesome...

Definitely a lot of boxing on.
And the Davis Garcia card has a few good fights as well

[skanksta]

Zelfa a mile ahead, Sanchez so game to take his beating and keep coming back.

[skanksta]

Excellent from Zelfa, couldn't get the stoppage, got everything but.
Sanchez showed some chin.

If Sam Noakes does end up challenging one of these two in the near future, I suspect it could be a tad watchable..
